Christmas service boom

(Baonghean) - The need to have fun and gather during the Christmas season is increasing, so this is also the time when many services "following" the Christmas season flourish. Grasping the shopping tastes of consumers during this time, many stores have simultaneously launched promotional and incentive programs to stimulate consumption.

Decoration and sales services

Christmas tree decoration service is chosen by many people, due to busy work or shops that want to decorate professionally, all rely on this service. Small sized pine trees are often bought by customers and decorated according to their preferences. However, large trees, especially for agencies and organizations, need someone to decorate, so this is one of the "hot" services during the Christmas season.

Mr. Tien, a veteran in Christmas tree decoration, said: “This is a job that requires skill and aesthetic sense. The price depends on the number of people working as well as the size of the tree. If customers buy from another store and hire decoration, they will be charged for the service, but if they buy the whole package from our store, the decoration is free for them.”
